This room’s tucked-away location off the family room inspired me to design it as a British-style “snug”. I wanted it to feel quiet, warm, elegant, and feminine. A space where the inhabitant could come in at the end of a long day, sit down, and unwind with a glass of wine, a good book, or a favorite record playing in the background. An awkward closet became a design opportunity, transformed into a hidden moment of surprise and delight.

The scheme was built around a partnership with Spring Street by Pollack, anchored by the brand’s embroidered “Corsage” fabric. From there I layered in corals, purples, and ochres to create a space that is warm and inviting, luxurious and playful. The textiles throughout work together with an unexpected harmony. Recurring floral and shell motifs reinforce the room’s soft organic femininity, while Farrow & Ball’s “Sulking Room Pink” on the trim ties it all together.

Curated art and objects lend the room a sense of history, as though collected over time rather than assembled all at once. The result is a space designed for retreat - for quiet reflection, creative inspiration, and intimate conversation.
